C2032 A Sad Story (1/2)

It was not like Zai Chun had never seen people who sold their ancestors' blessings, all the dirty Chinese officials in the imperial court. If they had met an opportunity to raise the flag earlier on, they would have sold their lives and drilled in, abandoning their ancestors' surnames.

Although the prestige of the imperial government had decreased in recent years and the Chinese Officer officials' wings had hardened, making the flag seem unattractive, it was only aimed at those who were at least at the third rank. If the rest of the officials were to encounter such an opportunity, they would have to dig their way in.

There were many benefits to being able to lift a flag, and there were also many Han Chinese who fought for this ideal. However, no matter how one abandoned their ancestors, they would still have a bit of a shameless heart, so after receiving the benefit of being able to lift a flag, they didn't scold their own group.

At most, he would just stay silent and avoid this topic. On the surface, he just wanted to enjoy the benefits of being the banner holder.

But Liu Dadao was different. First, he acknowledged that he had Chinese blood in him, and at the same time, he was extremely pleased that he was able to leave this group.

Zai Chun could hear the true meaning behind his words, this was not an act, from the looks of it, the Liu Dadao family must have a story.

Sure enough, there was a story. Liu Dadao explained everything in a few sentences, and after Zai Chun finished listening to the story, he started to doubt the nationalistic thoughts he had learned previously.

After he raised the flag, he could use the name Ye Hennara. However, because he was afraid of his master, his family always used the name Liu.

Liu Dadao's family was born in Liaodong, and belonged to the Chinese line outside the city. They lived outside the city for generations, and when the Ming Dynasty was strong and prosperous, their family was very proud of their status.

Liu Dadao's ancestors relied on the Great Wall to sell some goods, their lives were incomparably comfortable.

However, after the rise of the fallen women of the Ming Dynasty and the bloody feud between the two sides, the identity of the Han people would become a magic charm outside the pass.

Liu Dadao's entire family was captured by the female realms and given to them as slaves. In the end, they were given to the Yehonala Clan.

Such a change in status made them miserable. The landlords had become tenants, and what was even worse, the businesses that their masters had let them manage had been accumulated over the course of a hundred years.

Seeing his original business change to someone else's while he was still smiling and begging for food in front of his master, this feeling must be unbearable.

There were naturally people in the family who could not bear it any longer, and the families of the two branch families began to plan to escape into the fortress. However, at the critical moment, due to Liu Dadao's ancestor's caution, or rather, his cowardice, he did not join the race.

Who would have thought that this decision would save them from annihilation?

”Mistress!” How could you know how dark Big Ming's side was? Guan Ning's Armoured Cavalry and the local soldiers had captured the two clansmen who were fleeing towards the south … There were 68 of them, men, women, old, children, all of them having been robbed of their wealth and forced to shave their own hair and change their clothes … ”

”They want to kill me!” ”They used these sixty plus people to pretend to be the female disciples they killed and carried them to claim their money …”
